ABOUT THIS MANUAL

Scope

—This instruction manual is intended to provide commissioning, programming, operating, and troubleshooting instruction for the M7E Extractor controller. See the installation manual for information on machine installation procedures and mechanical requirements. See the service manual for preventive maintenance, service procedures, and mechanical parts identification. See the schematic manual for electrical parts identification and electrical troubleshooting.

The Normal Display Sequence at Each Power Up

—Verify that the messages appearing on the display at start up are as shown in “RUNNING THE EXTRACTOR IN AUTOMATIC” (see Table of

Contents). Any other message(s) indicate an error condition that must be corrected before the machine will operate. See “M7E EXTRACTOR ERROR MESSAGES.”

Manual Number/Date Code (When To Discard or Save)

—The manual number/date code is located on the inside front cover, upper right corner just above the manual name. Whenever the manual is reprinted with new information, part of this number changes. If the date code after the “/” changes, the new

version applies to all machines covered by the old version, but is improved— thus the old version can be discarded. If the manual number before the “/” changes, the new manual covers only new machines.

Example: Discard MATMODELAE/8739

C

V when MATMODELAE/8739

D

V is received (minor improvements). Also, discard MATMODELAE/87

39D

V when MATMODELAE/87

46A

V is received (major improvements). But keep MATMODEL

A

E/8746FV when MATMODEL

B

E/8815AV is received, since the new manual no longer applies to machines originally shipped with the old manual.

Documents and Change Bars

—The individual documents comprising this manual use the same revision criteria as the manual. Text documents also display change bars. Example: When section

MSOP0599AE/9135

B

V becomes MSOP0599AE/9135

C

IMPORTANT OWNER/USER INFORMATION—

MACHINES WITH A KEYPAD

Take the following important steps before placing this machine in operation:

1. Ensure safety of laundry personnel.

2. Protect against data loss.

3. Customize data (configure, formula, and productivity data).

Ensure that all personnel who will operate or maintain this machine read the safety manual before per-

mitting them access to the machine. Ensure that all user manuals are available to the appropriate personnel and that all precautions explained in the safety and other user manuals are observed.

Follow the safeguards listed below to protect against data loss caused by human tampering, electromagnetic interference (EMI), physical damage to the data storage medium, or loss of power to random access memory (RAM).

1. Keep the Run/Program keyswitch set to run ( ) and secure the keys. Users must understand proper use of this control. See “ABOUT THE USER CONTROLS . . .” (see Table of Contents).

2. Keep all electric box doors closed and locked. Secure the keys.

3. Leave machine power on for 48 hours before customizing data. This fully charges the microprocessor battery, which will then supply power to the RAM for 90 days even if machine power is off.

4. Replace the battery board every five years. A capacitor on the processor board can supply power to the

RAM for several hours with the battery removed.

5. Keep electronic back-up data and/or a printed record of all field-programmed data (e.g., wash formulas, configure values, step names, chemical names) in case of data loss. See the instructions for downloading and printing this data if the machine has this capability.

6. For machines that accumulate productivity data (e.g., count of loads processed), transcribe any needed data frequently, as described in the instructions for data accumulation.

•

When commissioning the machine

•

When restoring a machine to service after a lengthy shutdown

•

When required by error message

•

After replacing the CPU board

•

After upgrading software (replacing EPROMs)

•

After adding or removing optional equipment

Delay Starting Belt, which follows, is the duration of pause before Belt A (and Belt B, if so equipped)

starts running. This pause time allows the goods to “bunch up” before the belts start moving and has two methods of operation, as explained below.

DELAY STARTING BELT

05 SECONDS

METHOD 1: Delay Starting Belt Time begins when the Discharge Sequence Rib

Deflation Time (RD) ends and the cylinder starts jogging to discharge. See “How

Belt A and Belt B Work” in this section for an explanation of belt motion resulting from this decision. When Delay Starting Belt Time

≠99, the extractor waits until transfer is allowed to begin the discharge sequence.

If a long Delay Starting Belt Time is configured, this time may exceed the jogging time for formulas with a small number of jog counts and cause a long pause between the end of jogging and the Delay Starting Belt Time.

DELAY STARTING BELT

99 UNTIL AFTER JOGS

METHOD 2: Delay Starting Belt Time is the duration of jogging. If Belt B is configured, the Belt On Time and Belt Off Time decisions do not appear. When Belt Delay Time=99, the extractor can begin the discharge sequence before transfer is allowed, thus saving time by permitting goods to discharge onto Belt A while the extractor awaits the ok to discharge.

99=Belt A (and Belt B if so equipped) remains stationary until the jogging sequence is finished (default). Belt A

(and Belt B, if so equipped) then run Belt Clear Time.

31


10 SECONDS

When the cylinder jogging sequence or Delay Starting Belt Time ends (whichever is longer), Belt A runs for the duration specified here to ensure all goods have discharged. See “How Belt A and Belt B Work” in this section.




BELT B INSTALLED

0 =NO [1=YES]

Does this extractor have a Belt B? If 0(no) is specified here, the Belt On Time, Belt

Off Time, and Belt B Clear Time decisions do not appear.

0=No (default value)

1=Yes

The following two decisions appear only if Belt B Installed=1(yes) and Delay Starting Belt Time

≠99.

BELT ON TIME

05 SECONDS

00=00 seconds (minimum and Default Value)



Duration of belt motion, after the Belt Delay Time, each time the belts move

while the cylinder is jogging to discharge (in seconds). This works in conjunction with Belt Off Time. This display only appears if Belt B In-

stalled=1(yes).

The on and off times, which must be determined by field trials, will be those which achieve a fairly uniform dispersal of goods across the entire length of Belt B (i.e., the first piece of goods block the discharge-end photo-eye at about the same time the last piece of goods transfers from Belt A to Belt B).

BELT OFF TIME

02 SECONDS

Duration of belt pause each time the belts stop while the cylinder is jogging to

discharge (in seconds). This works in conjunction with Belt On Time. This display appears only if Belt B Installed=1(yes).




The following decision only appears if the Belt B Installed=1(yes).

BELT B CLEAR TIME

20 SECONDS

When allowed to discharge, Belt B runs for the duration specified here, to ensure that all goods have discharged. Appears only if Belt B Installed=1(yes).

Ë

How BELT A and BELT B Work

The extractor incorporates conveyor belts as shown in

FIGURE 1. The two belts under the cylinder are together known as “Belt A” and are always supplied. Depending on the overall system design, Belt A will discharge either onto an optional storage belt, known as “Belt B” and supplied as part of the extractor, or it will discharge directly to the receiving device (usually a Milnor

®

Coloos).

If Belt B is supplied, the extractor can discharge its cylinder when desired onto Belt B, provided Belt B is not loaded, because Belt B is usually designed to store goods. If Belt B is loaded, the extractor must wait for Belt B to discharge its goods before the extractor can discharge the cylinder.

If Belt B is not supplied, the extractor must wait for the receiving device before it can discharge the cylinder, because

Belt A is not capable of storing goods.

To control the dispersal of goods on the belts during

discharge, the user can specify either no belt motion, stationary followed by continuous motion (until the belt photo-eye is blocked), or stationary followed by intermittent motion (if Belt B is provided). The following table shows how the belt on/off and

Belt Delay decisions achieve this.

1. After jogging is completed, Belt B runs intermittently during any remaining Belt A Clear Time then continuously for Belt B Clear Time.

2. If the Belt B photo-eye blocks, Belt B stops.

3. If the Belt B photo-eye is not blocked within Belt B Clear Time, “photoeye failed” error occurs.

4. If the extractor is configured for allied discharge, Belt B will stop and start each time the photo-eye blocks and subsequently clears (as when goods are manually removed) until it runs for one uninterrupted Belt B Clear

Time. At this time, the control declares Belt B empty, preventing it from running again until it receives the next batch of goods.

HOLD UNLOAD DEVICE

0 =NO [1=YES]

ALLIED PASS DATA

0 =NO [1=YES]

Applies to certain Miltrac devices only. Should the device that is receiving goods from the extractor (e.g., a shuttle) wait for more than one load (e.g., wait for two

110-lb. loads from the extractor, before conveying these to a 220-lb. capacity dryer)? If so, Hold Unload Device=1(yes). See the Miltrac manual.

Only if Allied Loading and/or Allied Discharging=1(yes). Tells the extractor that optional boards are required for data (must match hardware provided).


1=Yes

MILTRAC ADDRESS

LOAD CHUTE INSTALLED

0 =NO [1=YES]

Does this extractor have a load chute installed? If 0(no) is selected, the control ignores the Load Chute Not Up and Load Chute Not Down inputs and does not check for these error conditions. However, the control still utilizes the Load Chute

Blocked input to check for this error.

LOAD DOOR INSTALLED

0 =NO [1=YES]

Does this extractor have a door installed? If 0(no) is selected, the control ignores the

Door Up and Door Down inputs and does not check for these error conditions.


1=Yes

CHECK LOAD-EYE AFTER

1 SECONDS

1=Lowest value (default)

5=5 seconds (recommended)

9=Highest value

Enter the desired amount of time the controller should monitor the load-end eye input toward the end of each distribution (i.e., entering 05 would cause the controller to begin monitoring in the last 5 seconds of the loading sequence distribution speed or the pre-extract sequence redistribution speed.

34


Entering 1(yes) to the Store Load on Belt A configure decision will cause the extractor cylinder to tilt, crushing the belt on a normal extractor. Answer 1(yes) only for extractors raised 48 inches over Belt A.

STORE LOAD ON BELT A

0 = NO [1 = YES]

Applies only to extractors raised 48 inshes over Belt A. Enter 0(no) if the controller should not store goods on Belt A. Enter 1 (yes) if the controller should store goods


1=Yes on Belt A because the multiple cake discharge feature in Miltrac is used.

NOTE: To enable the multiple cake discharge, the previous Hold Unload Device decision must be 1(yes).

EARLY CALL FOR LOAD

1=YES [0=NO]


1=Yes

0

Applies only if using Miltrac. Enter 1(yes) if the extractor should request goods from theloading device after formula minimum time is expired. Enter 0(no) if the extractor should request goods only after the jog sequence is finished and basket is starting to tilt down.


RUN BELT AFTER LOAD

1=YES [0=NO] 0


1=Yes

Enables Belt B for 15 seconds when the machine enters distribution speed. This clears a portion of the belt to avoid discharging a few loose items onto the shuttle and blocking the photo-eye before all goods can be loaded onto the shuttle. Set this decision to 0(no) if Belt B is installed or a load can be stored on Belt A.

HOLD BELT B TIL A IS

FULL 0=NO 1=YES 0

Applies if using Miltrac with Belt B installed. Enter 1(yes) if the extractor should transfer to the unloading device after the machine finishes extracting the second batch of goods during a multiple cake discharge.

1. Valid downloading requires that the sending and receiving machines have identical software versions and that the receiving machine’s model and options closely correspond to the sending machine’s configuration. The following conditions produce data that is valid for the receiving machine(s) to the extent indicated:

• Downloaded data is fully valid when all the machines have identical software version, and all receiving machines match the sending machine’s configuration (model and options). Generally, only minor corrections are required to validate data after downloading; thus, downloading is usually beneficial.

• Identical software version, sending machine’s configuration matches receiving machine’s model but not its options. Modify configure codes and formulas to suit receiving machine’s options.

• Identical software version, but configuration does not match receiving machine’s model. Formulas usually require substantial modification to validate the data; thus, downloading is of questionable value.

• Do not download different software versions (results in scrambled, unusable data).

Unless all machines have identical configurations, after downloading, always reconfigure in accordance with each receiving machine’s configuration nameplate. Failure to do so may compromise safety and result in damage to goods or machine.

2. Downloading transfers all formulas and configure codes from one machine (or simulator or PC) to another via a serial communication cable or between a machine and cassette tape via a MILNOR

®

Cassette Tape Interface. Downloading eliminates the need to enter the same data repeatedly. However, selective downloading

(e.g., transferring only certain wash formulas) is not possible.

3. For machine-to-machine transfers where a serial link is not permanently installed (in conduit) between the participating machines, install a temporary cable in accordance with “THE EXTERNAL SERIAL LINK CA-

BLES AND HOW TO CONSTRUCT THEM.”

Remove temporary cable as soon as downloading is completed, to avoid data loss.

4. Do not use the downloading procedures described in this section with machines that are part of a Mil-

trac, Milnet

®

, or Mildata

®

system unless all system devices except those participating in downloading

are turned off. Download data and system data share the same serial communication line; thus download data can disrupt system operation, and system data can scramble the download data.

NOTE: This restriction does not apply to downloading from a Mildata

6. In the downloading process there may be one or more slave (receiving) machines or one receiving tape recorder and only one master (sending) machine or tape recorder. Designate all slave (receiving) machines

first. If data is transferring between machines, downloading begins as soon as one machine is desig-

nated as the master. If transferring from machine to tape, downloading begins 10 seconds after the machine is designated the master. If transferring from tape to machine, downloading begins when the tape recorder is set to “Play.”

Operating

MSOP0905CE/2000335V (1 of 12)

CRUSHING AND ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS—When the extractor is operating automatically, it will tilt up/down, drive motors will run/stop, conveyors will run/stop, and other devices will move automatically and without warning. Verify all machine guards are in place and there is no possibility of personnel entering or reaching into the machine. Emergency Stop switches on extractor and pull cords on conveyor(s) will stop the machine.

The extractor’s normal operating mode is fully automatic. Once set for automatic operation, a new batch (and its batch codes) passes from the loading device (e.g., the Milnor

®

batch washer) to the extractor each time the batch washer transfers. Before each transfer, the just-extracted goods discharge onto a conveyor (thus, freeing the extractor cylinder for the next batch) and eventually to a dryer or other post-wash device.

NOTE 1: All counters displayed during normal operation are in MM:SS (minutes:seconds) format.

NOTE 2: When two or more extractors are served by a shuttle loading device (e.g., Milnor® Cobuc), load-end flags (targets) are located on the shuttle rail in front of each extractor. These flags stop the loading device at the next extractor to be loaded. For Miltrac systems, the flag deploys when the Miltrac control requests “get ready to receive” (prior to “start transfer”); it retracts as soon after the Cycle Start input is made, and the Miltrac control requests “do nothing” (transfer sequence completed). For allied loading, the flag deploys when the

Loading Allowed input is made and retracts 10 seconds after the Cycle Start input is made.

NOTE 3: The extractor always utilizes the Cycle Start input (independent of Miltrac) to guarantee that the cycle begins (cylinder turns at distribution speed) as goods enter the cylinder.

**PLEASE WAIT**

NOTE: When two or more extractors are served by a shuttle receiving device (e.g., Milnor

®

COLOOS) discharge end flags (targets) are located on the shuttle rail behind each extractor to stop the receiving device at the next extractor to be discharged. For Miltrac systems, the flag deploys when the Miltrac control requests “get ready to discharge” (all conditions for discharge satisfied). For allied discharge, the flag deploys when the Discharge Allowed input is made. Flag retracts at the end of the discharge sequence.

Early Call is a software feature which causes the extractor to issue a “desire to load” or “desire to discharge” message ahead of time to ensure the expedient transfer of goods. Early Call in the extractor applies to receiving and discharging and works with both the Miltrac system and with allied devices (if the allied devices provide the necessary inputs, outputs, and control logic).

Ë

—The extractor “desires to load” when the Estimated Minimum Cycle time reaches zero and Early

Call for Load=1 (yes). If the extractor is told that a load has been committed to it for transfer, the control will end the extract cycle in progress. As soon as the extractor has finished discharging and returned to the loading position, it will ask for the transfer to take place.

In some systems (e.g., where the extractor is loaded directly by a tunnel), Early Call requires that the extract cycle ends before the next load to enter the extractor has been committed for transfer. The extractor’s End Extract input provides this capability. When this input is closed and the Estimated Minimum Cycle time for the extract formula in progress reaches zero, the extractor will end the extract cycle, permitting the extractor to discharge and return to the loading position in time to avoid a “no transfer” hold condition in the tunnel. The tunnel controller must close the End Extract input before the tunnel is committed to transfer.

48


Ë

—If the commanded RI (Inflate Ribs) for the extract formula in progress is zero, the extractor

“desires to discharge” when the extract cycle ends and the extractor cylinder starts slowing (braking). If the commanded RI (Inflate Ribs) is not zero, the extractor “desires to discharge” when RI (Inflate Ribs) counts down to zero.

If the extractor has Belt B, then it is independent of RI and will try to discharge immediately.

Ë

—Anytime the flow of goods into the extractor stops (e.g., if there is a hold condition in the tunnel), the extractor remains at Waiting For Load. Whenever the flow of goods resumes, processing continues without manual intervention.

Ë

—Anytime the extractor desires to discharge but cannot because the device to which the extractor sends its goods (e.g., Belt B, shuttle) is not ready to receive, the extractor takes one of four possible actions, depending on the Jog Before Tilt (A) programming decision and the Delay Starting Belt Time

configure decision. These actions are as follows:

Jog Before

Tilt (A)

0

0

1

1

Belt Delay

Time

≠99

Sequence of Actions

Tilt up— wait for receiving device— rib inflation— jog and run belt(s)*

Tilt up—rib inflation— jog— wait for receiving device— run belt(s)

Rib Inflation— jog— tilt up—jog and run belt(s)*

Rib Inflation— jog— tilt up— jog— wait for receiving device— run belt(s)

*See“How Belt A and Belt B Work” (see Table of Contents)

In all four cases above, normal processing resumes without manual intervention, as soon as the extractor’s receiving device is available.

Ë

—If the extractor either loses power or the three-wire circuit drops out (e.g., if a Stop switch is pressed), the extractor stops immediately. The extractor can easily be returned to automatic operation regardless of how long it was stopped or what portion of the cycle it was in when it stopped.

It is not necessary to use the manual mode to load or unload the extractor merely to return it “on-line.”

It will resume normal automatic operation and synchronize with its interfacing devices (e.g., Miltrac, shuttle) automatically once a power restoration sequence (explained in this section) is completed.

49


The extractor will execute one of three possible sequences to return on-line, depending on which of the following conditions occurred:

• Power was lost during any portion of the cycle other than extract.

• Power was lost during extract.

• Three-wire circuit was disabled without power loss.

Ë

—With the Milnor

®

tunnel, each wash formula can be assigned an extract formula number which will be passed on to the extractor with each batch.

However, any wash formula to which the pass-empty attribute has been assigned (see explanation of post-wash functions in the Display H instructions in the Programming, Operating, and Troubleshooting manual for the Milnor

®

Continuous Batch Washer) will be ignored by the extractor control. The proper procedure when programming the batch washer is to assign the pass-empty attribute and an unused extract formula number to any empty pocket wash formula (i.e., the pass-empty and purge formulas). When these empty pockets arrive at the extractor, the extractor runs in slow or distribution speed depending on the loading speed in configuration to let the unloading device dump the water into its cylinder (for extractors equipped with a door, the door will open) and displays

Receive Empty Load.

®

Any formula number devoted to a “pass-empty” or purge formula in the Milnor tunnel, should remain un-programmed in the extractor since these formulas will have the pass-empty attribute assigned and will be unused

(ignored by the extractor control).

51


In the event of a power loss (Three-Wire Disabled error), Receiving Error, Transfer Error, Limit Switch Error

(see “M7E EXTRACTOR ERROR MESSAGES”), or manual intervention, the control cannot know whether goods are still present in the cylinder or on Belt B (if provided), and thus considers the batch codes for these locations unreliable and prompts the user for certain information as explained below. Throughout the operating instructions, whenever the operator must respond with cake information, the required key strokes are represented by <responses>.

CRUSHING AND ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS. Extractor will resume operating immediately upon entering the requested cake information. Make sure all personnel are clear of extractor mechanisms.

Powering up With Goods in the Extractor Cylinder or With the Cylinder Tilted Up

If the extractor is powered on after a brief shutdown and wet goods are in the cylinder, extract these goods by responding yes to Does Extractor Have A Cake? and no to Discharge Load In Basket? If the goods remaining in the cylinder are not wet enough to require extraction, or if the extractor was powered off with the cylinder tilted up

(thus, the goods have already been extracted), discharge these goods from the extractor by responding yes to Does

Extractor Have A Cake? and yes to Discharge Load In Basket? even if all of the goods have already discharged

onto Belt A.

CRUSHING AND ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS. If the extractor was powered off with the cylinder tilted up, it will remain up when first powered on. When the control prompts for cake information, the cylinder will either remain up or tilt down, depending on the responses given.

any message

The three-wire relay became de-energized. This relay provides control circuit power to the machine. Once energized by momentarily depressing , it is held energized by its own normally open contact, along with motor overloads, etc. Should any of these contacts open, even momentarily, the machine stops and displays Three-wire

Disabled plus those specific reasons mentioned below. These messages will remain even if the contact only opened momentarily, and will reappear if the Master switch is turned off and then on again. These messages can only be cleared by pushing , and then only if the cause of the error is corrected.

The three-wire relay became de-energized, but the control cannot determine the cause. This is usually the result of pressing the Stop button or pulling an Emer-

gency Stop switch. See “If the Three-Wire Circuit Was Disabled Without Power

Loss” in “RUNNING THE EXTRACTOR IN AUTOMATIC.”

Control sees speed switch open, indicating that 1) the basket is rotating at speed which keeps the speed switch open, or 2) a malfunction in the speed switch circuitry occurred

(if the basket is stopped). When the speed switch input is made, operation resumes.

Brake Pressure switch saw insufficient air pressure in the brake release air cylinder to guarantee that the brake has released. Possible causes include 1) low air pressure

(frequently caused by too small an air supply pipe to the machine), 2) leaking quick release valve, pilot air valve, or piston cup in air cylinder, 3) pinched or leaking brake air lines. Operation resumes when cause of error is corrected.

The conveyor door is the moving panel that permits clearance for the extractor drain.

It is normally commanded to move down when the extractor is at the intermediate point and must move down fully within five seconds after the extractor has tilted up fully to discharge, otherwise this error occurs. Any malfunction of the door mechanism or down proximity switch must be corrected before normal operation can resume. The error clears automatically when the Conveyor Door Down input is made.

Normally the conveyor door is commanded to move up when the extractor desires to tilt down and must move to the fully up position within ten seconds after the extractor desires to tilt down or this error will occur. Any malfunction of the door mechanism or UP proximity switch must be corrected before normal operation can resume. The error clears automatically when the Conveyor Door Up input is made.

LOAD CHUTE IS NOT

LOAD CHUTE IS NOT

ENTANGLEMENT HAZARD—The linen inside or hanging partially outside a turning cylinder can suddenly wrap around your hand, arm, or body and twist off/sever it. Lock off and tag out power at external disconnect before clearing the load chute.

The load chute is commanded down when the machine starts the loading sequence, but if the load chute is not down ten seconds after the loading sequence starts, this error message is displayed and the cylinder stops. returns to the start of the loading sequence once the cause of the error is corrected. Machine must be configured for this option, otherwise the error is ignored.

The load chute is commanded up when DT (Distribution) starts. However, if the load chute is not up during the last five seconds of distribution, this error message is displayed and the cylinder stops. restarts the cycle once the cause of the error is corrected. Machine must be configured for this option, otherwise error ignored.

Machine must be configured for this option; otherwise, the error is ignored.

The door is commanded down after the extractor receives or discharges a load.

Once the door is commanded down, it must move down fully within ten seconds or this error occurrs. starts the cycle once the cause of this error is corrected. Machine must be configured for this option, otherwise error is ignored.

The load chute photo-eye was blocked (or its connection to the microprocessor broken) during the last five seconds of Distribution Time (DT). This also stops the cylinder. The condition must be corrected before operation can resume. restarts the cycle if cause of the error is corrected.

If Belt B is not provided, the photo-eye failed to make, then break, during discharge to assure goods have passed it. The Belt B photo-eye is made when the control knows the belt should be empty or the input is not made when the control knows the belt should contain goods. This condition must be corrected before normal operation can resume. resumes operation if the cause of the error is corrected.

A malfunction caused the Down limit switch and Up limit switch to both be made simultaneously. This condition must be corrected before normal processing can resume.

LIMIT SWITCH ERROR

PRESS SIGNAL CANCEL

THE HARDWARE IN SERIAL-TYPE MICROPROCESSORS

FOR MARK IV AND V MACHINES

C

Milnor

®

General

serial microprocessor controls are designed specifically for Milnor

®

machines and systems. Along with certain external electromechanical relay logic and sensing devices, they control all machine and system functions. Not every microprocessor includes all the components described in this section.

The Microprocessor Components

This is a list of all components for Milnor

®

microprocessor controllers. Not every

Milnor

®

microprocessor controller includes all the following components.

1. Keypad or Keyboard

—Depending upon the model/type, the keypad may have 12, 30, or 58 buttons. The different keypads are not interchangeable.

2. Keyswitch

—Selects run/program modes. The key may be removed only in run. Never leave the key acces-

sible to unauthorized personnel.

3. Display

—Depending upon the model/type, the display may be either liquid crystal, fluorescent, or CRT. The different displays are not interchangeable.

4a. Power Supply (NOT for CBW

®

System)

—Converts control circuit AC voltage to +12VDC,

-12VDC, and +5VDC for the CPU board. On dryers and some other machines, a second, identical power supply performs the same function for all the peripheral boards, which are mounted in an enclosure separate from the CPU.

A minimum 14AWG ground wire must be connected between the grounds on the CPU and the peripheral board(s). This ground is installed at the factory when both enclosures are mounted on the same machine, as in washer-extractors. The ground wire must be provided during installation when the CPU enclosure and its associated peripheral board enclosures are remote from one another as in dryers.

Although the +12VDC and -12VDC are not adjustable, the +5VDC for the CPU is very sensitive. The power supply must be adjusted most accurately, so the actual voltage at the CPU board is between 4.95VDC and

5.1VDC as measured by an accurate digital voltmeter.

B

4b. Power Supply (CBW

®

System Only)

—The Milnor



CBW



System utilizes two discrete power supplies to convert control circuit AC voltage to +12 VDC, -12 VDC, and +5VDC for the CPU board and peripheral boards.

One power supply (ESPS) is a 40-watt power supply located in the Miltron cabinet. It powers the peripheral boards in the Miltron cabinet, including the optional load cell interface board and A/D board for a weighing conveyor, the CPU board and the memory expansion board, and the monitor interface board.

Although the +12VDC and -12VDC are not adjustable, the +5VDC for the CPU is very sensitive. The power supply must be adjusted accurately, so the actual voltage at the CPU board is between 4.95VDC and 5.1VDC as

measured by an accurate digital voltmeter.

B

84


FOR MARK IV AND V MACHINES MSFDA401EE/9533CV (2 of 6)

The second power supply (PSO) is a 120-watt power supply which provides +12VDC, -12VDC, and +5VDC to the peripheral boards located on the tunnel. This power supply provides for the adjustment of the +12VDC voltage, the

-12VDC voltage, and the +5VDC voltage. If these voltages require adjustment, set the +5VDC to provide no less than

+4.8VDC at the module electric box farthest from the power supply, as measured by an accurate digital voltmeter. If necessary, adjust the +12VDC to 12.00VDC and the -12VDC to -12.00VDC as measured by an accurate digital voltmeter.

If the +5VDC at the peripheral board nearest PSO is at least +5.25VDC when the voltage at the peripheral board farthest from PSO is +4.8VDC or less, suspect loose MTA connections or inadequate wiring somewhere between the nearest and farthest peripheral boards.

5. CPU (Processor) Board

—The Central Processing Unit (CPU) processes data received from the various inputs, stores information, and responds to each keypad entry with the appropriate action. It may be mounted in an enclosure separate from its peripheral boards. The CPU contains EPROMs programmed by the Milnor



factory with fixed instructions (software) that determine how the machine functions. Depending upon machine model/type, the CPU chip can be an Intel 8085, an Intel 8088, or an Intel 80186.

Although the EPROMs do not require battery backup, the CPU board utilizes a battery which normally assures that the user-programmable memory will be retained for two to three months without external power. See below and

“IMPORTANT OWNER/USER INFORMATION . . .” (see Table of Contents).

6. Memory Expansion Board

—Increases memory space available to the processor. This board is used with

8088 CPU board in some applications.

7. Battery

—Provides memory retention backup when power is off. The battery is mounted directly on 8085 CPU boards, and mounted separately for 8088 and 80186 CPU boards. A capacitor on the 8088 and 80186 CPU board provides enough power to retain memory for several hours after the battery has been disconnected. Once fully charged (see “IMPORTANT OWNER/USER INFORMATION . . .”), the battery backup is reliable for 90 days with no power applied.

8. Opto-Isolator Board

—Optically isolates inputs to the CPU for electronic noise immunity. Opto-Isolators are incorporated into the 8088 and 80186 CPU board; thus this separate board is only required for 8085 CPUs.

9. I/O Board

—16/8 input-output contains 16 solid-state signal input devices and eight output relays. The input devices are capable of faithfully conducting a low VA 12VDC ground signal to the CPU. The output relays are socketmounted SPDT, 12VDC electromechanical relays with contacts capable of faithfully conducting a maximum of 25VA at 110/120VAC (0.2 ampere or 200 milliamperes at 110/120VAC) or 12.5 VA at 24VAC (0.5 ampere or 500 milliamperes at 24VAC). The output will be either 24VAC or 110/120VAC depending on the machine model/type.

These outputs and their power source are intended only to drive another relay with higher contact ratings, that in turn may drive a pump, valve, solenoid, etc., from a separate power source. Never use these outputs to directly

drive a pump, valve, or solenoid unless the maximum current required never exceeds the above values.

Higher ampere or VA loads will burn out traces on the printed circuit board or possibly overload and damage the control circuit transformer.

This board has 25 status lights. One light blinks when the board is sending signals. Each of the 24 remaining lights represent an input (green lights) or output (red lights) on that board, and illuminates when the corresponding input or oututs is made. This board has two rotary dials which must be adjusted to set the board’s address (see

“Rotary Switches and How to Set Them” in this section). This board also has convenient test points that can be used to test voltage to the board.

85



Standard I/O board—Used in all devices requiring I/O boards except those listed below.

High-speed I/O board—Used only in the following devices and configurations: E6N, J6N, and T6N washer-extractors equipped and configured for both variable basket speed and electronic balancing;

Milrail configured for high-speed boards; and all configurations of the M7E centrifugal extractor.

10. Output Board

—A 24-output board contains 24 output relays, the same board and relays as described above.

11. A/D Board (Analog to Digital Convertor)

—Converts analog voltage signals, such as temperature, to a digital signal that can be utilized by the CPU. Up to a maximum of eight A/D channels may be provided on a single board. Although seemingly identical, the A/D boards used to sense air temperature in the dryer, water temperature in washer-extractors and textile machines, water temperature in the tunnel, and weight for a weighing conveyor are all different. The different types are clearly marked with different part numbers, which are men-

tioned in the wiring diagram set and are not interchangeable.

This board has one status light. This light blinks when the board is communicating. This board has two rotary dials which must be adjusted to set the board’s address (see “Rotary Switches and How to Set Them”). This board also has convenient test points that can be used to test voltage to the board.

12. D/A Board (Digital to Analog Convertor)

—Converts digital signals from the processor to an analog voltage between 0 and 5VDC (e.g., provides the analog signal to the dryer gas valve position actuator and dye machine steam position actuator).

This board has one status light. This light blinks when the board is communicating. This board has two rotary dials which must be adjusted to set the board’s address (see “Rotary Switches and How to Set Them”). This board also has convenient test points that can be used to test voltage to the board.

13. CRT Board

—Receives display instructions from the processor and generates the signals to the CRT to create the desired displays; used in controllers such as the Miltron and Miltrac controllers and Device Master systems.

The CRT board can be plugged in backwards, even though the cabinet/bracketry makes this difficult to do and labeling on the parent board states the proper orientation. Use care to orient the board properly, otherwise microprocessor components may burn out.

14. Resistor Boards

—Although seemingly identical, resistor boards are quite different. The different types

are clearly marked with different part numbers, which are mentioned in the wiring diagram set and are not

interchangeable.

a. For Temperature-Sensing System—Used with A/D board in washer-extractors and Dye-Extractors

®

as part of temperature-sensing system; not required on continuous batch washers because necessary circuitry is included on other (standard) CBW



printed circuit boards.

b. For Gas Valve—Used with D/A board in temperature control circuit of gas dryers; converts 0-5VDC to

4-20 milliamperes for modulating gas valve.

c. For Steam Valve—Used with D/A board in temperature control circuit of older steam dryer models; converts

0-5VDC to 4-20 milliamperes for modulating steam valve. See “4-20MA Output Board” in this section.

86



15. Signal Conditioner for Thermocouple

—Amplifies the output from a thermocouple so an A/D board can use the signal.

16. Rotation Safety Board

—Used in dryers. Reads rotational safety proximity switch to confirm that the basket is turning.

17. Temperature Probes

—Two types of temperature probes are used, depending on equipment type:

Thermistor temperature probes—A temperature-sensitive resistor whose resistance changes with respect to temperature; uses include washer-extractors, textile machines, and continuous batch washers.

Thermocouple temperature probes—A connection of dissimilar metals which produces a voltage with respect to its temperature; uses include dryers.

18. Weigh Scale Interface Board

—Regarding machine logic, this is located between the load cell of the weighing conveyor (CONWA) and the weighing conveyor A/D board. It interprets data from the conveyor load cell to the A/D board.

19. 4-20MA Output Board

—Used on newer textile machines and steam dryers with temperature control.

See “Resistor Boards/c. For Steam Valve” in this section.

20. 8 Out/16 In Chemical Flow Meter Board

—This board is used with the metered chemical injection option on textile machines. Eight outputs and eight counters are respectively assigned to chemical valves and chemical flow meters. Two of the counters are non-isolated direct inputs to the microprocessor on this board and are capable of of counting pulses of 0 to 5 VDC at a frequency of up to 10kHz. the remaining six counters are optically isolated from the peripheral board microprocessor and are capable of counting pulses from 0 to 12 VDC at a frequency up to 150 Hz.

The Serial Communications Port

All Milnor



serial microprocessors have a serial port with a nine-pin receptacle and plug to pass data to other devices via one of several special serial cables to Download or to Print data when their software supports these functions (e.g., see programming information). For more information on the various separate serial cables required for these functions, see external serial link cable information in this manual (see Table of Contents), if applicable.

Rotary Switches and How To Set Them

The Input/Output board, the Output board, the A/D board, and the D/A board each have two rotary switches which establish the address for each board. This allows the boards to communicate serially with its own CPU, as though on a “party line,” while sending and receiving its own messages. In a battery of machines, the rotary switches are identical for each identical peripheral board in each identical machine (e.g., each first I/O board (I/O-1) in each washer-extractor has the identical rotary switch setting). When a CPU must communicate with a higher level control

(e.g., when all dryers communicate with the Milnet

®

system), the higher level control must know the address of each CPU. For 8088 CPUs, the high level control knows the address of each CPU because that information was established during configuration (e.g., see Miltrac Address configure decision in the programming manual for any device that communicates with Miltrac).

EXTRACTORS WITH ALLIED

)SYSTEMS

Milnor

®

extractors can be supplied with potential-free contacts to permit interfacing with allied loading and receiving systems including electromechanical (relay-oriented) systems to pass the batch codes listed in the table

® below. For all signals to Milnor , the allied equipment must provide potential-free contacts capable of faithfully

® conducting low energy signals of 5 to 150 milliamps at 5VDC to 12DC. These signals ground a Milnor computer input, thus go directly into the computer, and must never be run adjacent to, or in the same conduit with any other wires. For all signals from Milnor

®

, potential-free contacts capable of conducting up to a maximum of 3VA at up to a maximum of 120VAC will be provided. These signals can only be used to close 120VAC interface relays (a source of 120VAC is available for this purpose (see schematic manual)), and may not be used to directly energize any device consuming more current or requiring a higher voltage than stipulated.

All MILNOR

®

signals are conducted by “traces” on the computer boards. These traces may burn out if called upon to handle heavy currents. Thus, they must never be connected to a load greater than 3VA at 120VAC (a maximum of .125 amperes at a maximum of 120VAC).

Heavier loads may burn out the traces and ruin expensive computer boards.

If allied loading is configured, then these binary inputs become available to any loading device that must communicate using relay logic (e.g., allied or non-serial device).

If allied discharge is configured, these binary outputs become available to any receiving device that must communicate using relay logic (e.g., allied or non-serial device). See the extractor schematic manual for detailed wiring and signal information.

AND WHERE TO CHECK THE DC VOLTAGES

Occasionally, software enhancements become available. Depending upon the software change, the new software EPROMs (Erasable, Programmable, Read-Only Memory) may be offered for sale or for no charge to the customer. When a set of EPROMs is changed in the field, ensure that the software version being installed matches the machine hardware and that EPROMs are installed in the proper socket positions and orientation.

G

SHOCK HAZARD—Electrical components on the machine conduct high voltage that will kill or seriously injure you on contact.

☞ Lock OFF and tag out electrical power at the main (wall) disconnect before

beginning this procedure.

1. Make sure all power to the machine is off.

2. Locate the EPROMs as described in “Location of EPROMs on Processor Board” in this section. Note the orientation of the EPROMs as shown in FIGURES 3, 5, 7, and 9.

3. Slip a small flat tool underneath the EPROM, and carefully remove each old EPROM from its base, taking note of their numerical order

(see FIGURES 3 and 7) and orientation to the key notch on the socket.

4. Install new EPROMs, making sure the key notch on the EPROM is properly oriented and that all pins enter the proper holes in the socket

(FIGURE 1). If necessary, slightly bend the pins on the EPROMs to align them in the socket. After inserting each EPROM, verify that all pins are seated in the socket.

COMPONENT DAMAGE HAZARD—Incorrectly installing any EPROM may cause EPROM burn out, machine failure, or display error.

☞ Match each EPROM with its corresponding socket. Each EPROM will work in

only one socket, although it may physically fit in others.

☞ Align EPROM so every pin mates with the correct hole in the socket.

Ë

—After installing new EPROMs, apply power to the machine and turn the machine on. If the EPROMs are properly installed, the display will continue with the normal display sequence when powering up. If the display is blank or appears unusual, turn the machine off at once and check the orientation of the EPROMs.

Depending on machine model and type, the CPU chip can be an Intel 8085 or an Intel 8088. Each microprocessor board requires at least one EPROM for proper operation, but the EPROMs are located differently, depending upon the type of board. This information describes the location and arrangement of the EPROM chips on each type of board. It also describes where to check the voltages required by the processor board.

HOW TO CONSTRUCT THEM

Only three wires (two signal wires plus a ground, referred to in this section as a serial link) are required to transfer data from one Milnor

®

device to another. However, because the two optional serial communicating functions (Download and Print Data, but not interconnected networks such as Milnet

®

/Miltrac or Mildata

®

systems) are conducted through a single external DIN-type, 9-pin connector, different serial links will be required for the two functions; it may be necessary to temporarily disconnect one plug from the connector and insert another to access the other optional function. Non-optional serial communications (as between Mildata washer-extractors, or as between Milnet

®

®

networks and a bank of

/Miltrac systems and the press, shuttle, and dryers in a CBW

®

system) are hard-wired internally either at the factory or during system installation. Thus, except for some field retrofit situations, these network systems generally do not use the external connector mentioned above.

In Mildata

®

systems, the functions of Download and Print Data are usually performed at the Mildata

®

PC itself, but each washer-extractor (and certain other machines if their software supports it) can also Download or

Print Data via its external connector.

If Download or Print Data is performed from serial downloader-to-machine or machine-tomachine with machines in a Milnet

®

/Miltrac or Mildata

®

network system, ALL energized machines on the network will receive the downloaded data. Turn off power to any machines to which you do not wish to Download.

Pin locations looking at the wire en-

try side of the female RECEPTA-

CLE (i.e., from inside the enclosure). The female RECEPTA-

CLE always has male pins. Ordinarily, all wires entering this

RECEPTACLE are inserted at the factory. Pins 1+2, 3+4, and 6+9 on the RECEPTACLE have been connected together at the factory as shown.

Pin locations looking at the wire en-

try side of the male PLUG. The male PLUG always has female pins. The wires entering this PLUG are inserted by others when the Serial Link cables are fabricated in the field, and by the factory if for a SE-

RIAL DOWNLOADER interface.

AVOID EQUIPMENT DAMAGE—Never connect pin 8 between any machines or to the printer. This pin conducts +5VDC from the machine’s power supply. Pin 8 is used only to power the SERIAL DOWNLOADER INTERFACE. If pin 8 is connected to any pin in the connector or the printer or any other machine, the two volt sources will clash and burn up expensive electronic components in both machines.

Ë

—Use 18AWG four-conductor shielded cable. Connect the shield to

the ground at one end only. See the various drawings below.

Ë

—FIGURE 3 illustrates how to construct a daisy chain serial link cable to download data from one machine to several others simultaneously. It is best to program one

(MASTER) machine (or to DOWNLOAD using SERIAL DOWNLOADER-TO-MACHINE if the data is already stored in the downloader) and then to use a serial link to program the remainder from that MASTER. Any machine on the serial link can be the MASTER.

FOR THE EPSON LX300 PRINTER

As of this writing, the Epson model LX300 printer is available from Milnor for printing data from microprocessor controllers with printing functions. (This printer replaces the Epson LX810, which replaced the Epson LX800.

®

Refer to Milnor document MSSM0251AE for information on these older printer models.) This document supplements the Epson LX300 User’s Guide for printers used with Milnor controllers.

NOTICE: Because of the many differences among printer makes and models, Milnor

®

cannot ensure suitability or troubleshoot printers other than the Epson LX300 (or older approved models), with the required interface cable.

Ë

—The Epson LX300 must be connected to the printer port on the machine using one of the following Milnor interface cables:
